1. Jon Stewart last night did the same thing
Except his was all of fox's shows and their bigotry and hatred of Muslims. It's disgusting that these racist fucks can continually spew their venom and no one call them out except show hosts

5. Thank you!
I was watching it with my parents (no I don't live in their basement I'm 18) and I could barely hold in my expletives I wanted to yell at the Fu news network anchors :)

6. Why do they show that bs station?
All fux entails is bigotry to the highest degree and hatred towards everyone who doesn't agree with them. The thing about mosques.. for gods sake it is a place of worship not a damn terrorist breeding ground. Do the Pakistanis see this as why the west is evil or what?

7. I have to laugh at Hannity's grasp of history
"He didn't talk about America's contributions to Kuwait."
Because America's first contribution to Kuwait was telling Saddam we had no interest in inter-Arab conflicts when he told us he wanted to invade Kuwait. We also give a nice but of money for the Kuwaiti family to continue their slavery operations so that we can have that much more oil.

"He didn't talk about America's contributions to Kosovo."
Okay. Let's for a glorious moment bask in the fact that Sean Hannity rabidly attacked president Clinton for US involvement in Kosovo. That done, frankly we didn't do much. We provided some tactical assistance as part of NATO in order to put up a protective barrier. While it's praise-worthy, it was a NATO operation, and not a solely American one; We were latecomers to that particular crisis.

"he didn't talk about American contributions to Indonesia."
I hardly think 4 million in post-tsunami aid makes up for our empowerment and enabling of Suharto. Seriously, there's no contest there. We created, funded, protected, and supported a genocidal fuckwit in Indonesia, who massacred over a million people either directly pr through starvation, on the basis that htey were too liberal-minded. Maybe he's a great personal hero to Hannity, but the people of Indonesia aren't lining up to thank us for this guy, let's say.

"Or Iraq."
American contributions to Iraq? Really, Sean Hannity? do you really want to talk about America's contributions to Iraq? The United States has been at the epicenter of the three wars that have torn iraq apart since 1980. We are almost singlehandedly responsible for the sanctions that turned the most advanced country in the middle east, into a destitute 4th-world country. Our contributions to Iraq? Motherfucker, I wanna distribute this statement with some Hannity effigies and bic lighters to Baghdad, that'll be MY contribution. Light 'em up!

"I don't hear America being praised enough in the Muslim world."
Maybe America ought to do more than mindlessly support mass reprisals and ethnic cleansing against Arabs in Palestine, treat Iraq like its own personal Rapeistan, constantly demand war against Iran, get its head out of its ass in Afghanistan, stop supporting one of the most oppressive regimes in the world in Saudi Arabia, and not talk to the Turks like they're dependents.

9. You can say anything with a straight face
if you're too stupid to understand what just came out of your mouth.
